CARTAGO
Costa Rica's "Holy City"
Follow the route (in car) that hundreds
of thousands of followers of the faith walk
every year as a spiritual pilgrimage
|
PURA VIDA
 |
A Culture of Faith & History
Visit the ruins of an ancient cathedral built
nearly half a millenium ago, destroyed by an
earthquake & fire a mere 1.5 centuries ago...
then beautifully rebuilt as a shrine
for the miracle which inspired its existence.

LANKESTER BOTANICAL GARDENS
If Costa Rica is world-famous for anything, it is first and foremost for its status as an "Eco Paradise"
These exotic gardens, originally the work of orchid-enthusiast Charles Lankester, were donated to
the
University of Costa Rica after his death... any flower-lover's fantasy, and a botanist's dream!
The Purple Orchid is Costa Rica's national flower... just one of hundreds of varieties you'll see here!
    
Discover the shocking
reality of the rapidly
disappearing rainforest...

ARENAL VOLCANO
At the bottom of this man-made lake lays an entire town, "Old Arenal"! (photos below)
  |
Having erupted as recently as x,
this "hot spot" towering high over
Lake Arenal draws nature-curious
tourists from around the globe with
hopes of seeing volcanic activity
|
MONTEVERDE CLOUD FOREST
Have you ever been in a plane, and realized you were looking DOWN on the clouds ?
Now, how would you like to try that on foot?
Monteverde is one of Costa Rica's many (and highest) national protected forests,
with primal forests, trees that seem to stretch to heaven, oxygen-rich hiking trails...
and an observation deck on the "Continental Divide" high above the clouds where,
on a clear day, you can see the Pacific Ocean and Caribbean Sea at the same time!
"Wow man, that's pretty high!" |
|
MANUEL ANTONIO BEACH & NATIONAL PARK
Charted in 1519 by Spanish Explorer Ponce de León
during his search for the Fountain of Youth,
Manuel Antonio is by all accounts one of
Costa Rica's most unique and beautiful beaches,
and the adjoining National Park is
a must for nature-lovers.
